Trinidad: Too close for comfort with its Islamic State problem
Nov 20, 2019 12:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams
The death of Islamic State (ISIS) caliph Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi does not mean that the threat from the Islamic State is over. Far from it. The Islamic State’s mission is to advance Islam violently, in accord with the dictates of Islamic theology found in the Hadith and Quran. The Washington Post referred to al-Baghdadi as an “austere religious scholar†and was lambasted for that reference, but that’s one of the things that al-Baghdadi really was (along with mass murderer and rapist).
“One of the biggest recruitment hubs for ISIS in the West†is the Caribbean Island of Trinidad.
“One of the least known, but most alarming, aspects of the Islamic State is its ability to draw recruits and sympathizers from around the world, including from many countries not known as hotbeds of radicalism. On a per-capita basis, Trinidad was one of the largest providers of volunteers for the caliphate, a development that seems to come out of nowhere.â€
